The security guard who was part of an incident in Las Vegas involving Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott told a television station he plans to file charges against the NFL player.

According to Fox Vegas FOX5, security guard Kyle Johnson said he filed charges against Elliott after an alleged assault on May 19 at a Las Vegas festival.

The alleged assault happened around 3 a.m. when Elliot became confrontational after being denied access to a restricted area by Johnson, according to a story on the television's website. Johnson was working as a security guard at the event.

Johnson filed the charges following the NFL's decision against any punishment or suspension earlier this month.

The story added Las Vegas Metropolitan Police will conduct an investigation before official charges can be filed.

Video of the incident had Elliott in handcuffs but he was not arrested and was not suspended by the NFL.

Elliott's attorneys Scott Rosenblum and Jason Lambert said in a release on Saturday that was tweeted out by Clarence Hill with the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that the running back has been the "target of extortion" for several weeks, and Elliott and his team "are in contact with proper authorities and fully cooperating in their investigations."
